ORIGINAL: MistressAurora Unable to find a suitable live-in slave, I have placed My lovely home and slave quarters on the market for $525K. This is a gorgeous property on a private half acre with beautiful gardens and a mature orchard, just 200 feet from a large wooded park with miles of trails, above Lake Washington on Seattle's prestigious "Eastside". I am still looking for a suitable slave, but am also looking for a buyer.. I will accept whichever comes first.

A property such as Yours would be worth twice the price You are asking if it were located her in my area. It is too bad that You have decided to give it up, but from what You have said (and i am not sure if i am correct in this assumption), Your property is probably too much work for one person alone. Keeping property in good condition is not only expensive, but time-consuming as well. i know this from my own experience. i own a house in Sonoma County, California, which has doubled in value since it's purchase in 1994. I should not complain, but when i moved here, i had only one neighbor, and this hosue the only one on the block, so i had a great place for hosting parties and such. However, the developers and the City have elected to build 21 homes on a 3.8-acre parcel of land right next door, and all of the traffic will be routed in and out, using the street that my house faces. i was astounded as to how they could get away with changing the neighborhood in such a way, so i began a petition drive, constructed a Website, and began to enlist the help of my nieghborhood, since this project would impact them as well. My complaints to the Community Development Department, the Mayor, and the City Council was met with little or no concern. i fought it for the most part of last year, but due to greed and corruption of our local legislators, they finally won. In short, when You think You have found the best possible property in a wonderfully-beautiful setting, all of this can change in an instant. Please excuse the rant, but as You can see, i'm still angry over this. And if not for the termperate climate here (except for a couple of months of rain day after day), it is one of the nicest places one can imagine. i do hope that You can find a replacement property that You will be happy with, and one where the environment won't change practically overnight. Respectfully, philip
